The path to mastery in coaching is a balanced act between polishing our skills and deepening our own self-awareness. Everyday, our challenge is to find the equilibrium between form and flow. Bottom line, coaching is a human-to-human experience and it is when we embrace this ongoing exercise of BECOMING that we can find our authentic place in the coaching process.
Episode 6 addresses the art and science of coaching. Coaching is not just a skill set – it is a way of being. Understanding the fundamental skills or core competencies married with who we are at our core, allows us to demonstrate coaching at its finest. Here, we use metaphors of basketball and music to highlight that in order to be the best coach you can be, both art and science are necessary. The constant and consistent practice of our skills is vital to our growth and development.
